27 Kentish primary potin and 1 Roman Republican denarius of C. Vibius Pansa (RRC 342).

This find, Treasure cases 2017T606 (KENT-588B4F), 2017T132 (KENT-A07E23) and another group known from the same field prior to the advent of the 1996 Treasure Act were dispersed over a wide area, making it unclear if each represents an individual hoarding event or a greatly dispersed single hoard.

Notes

The Republican denarius is later in date than the potins.
